OK - that's *old*... I guess porting from 1.0 to 1.3 will be mostly straightforward, though there are probably a few gotcha's in there... > I need to add printing to the > application.

Seems like a lot of hassle - the printing support in fltk-1.3 will mostly handle rendering any widget in postscript for sending to the printer anyway. Or... maybe you hadn't heard that Manolo et al put printing support into 1.3? > > I wonder, can I neatly print the contents of the Fl_Help_View in FLTK > v1.3.x using Fl_Printer?

OK, yes fltk-1.3 ought to do the trick then, especially if you need non-ASCII text handling, you need to render the text as utf8 in fltk-1.3 and all should be well.
